Official list of the best college football players of 1924
Red Grange , "The Galloping Ghost", was 1924's only unanimous All-American.
The 1924 College Football All-America team wasd composed of college football players who were selected as All-Americans by various organizations and writers that chose College Football All-America Teams in 1924. The six selectors recognized by the NCAA as "official" for the 1924 season are:
(1 ) Walter Camp , whose selections were published in Collier's Weekly
(2 ) Football World FW ),
(3 ) the All-America Board (AAB),
(4 ) the International News Service (INS),
(5 ) Liberty
(6 ) the Newspaper Enterprise Association (NEA).
The only unanimous All-American in 1924 was halfback Red Grange of Illinois , known as "The Galloping Ghost" and who in 2008 was named by ESPN as the best college football player of all time. The consensus All-Americans recognized by the NCAA for 1924 also include tackle Ed Weir , who was later named the 19th best athlete in Nebraska history, and three of Notre Dame 's legendary Four Horseman (halfback Jim Crowley , quarterback Harry Stuhldreher , and fullback Elmer Layden ).
